Just eat healthier, but just to let you know, I’m younger than you and weigh more than you and shorter too, so I don’t think you should lose weight.

  1. eat tons of celery, the energy it takes to eat outweighs the calories gained, therefore celery is food that takes away fat

  2. If you are really serious about getting in shape, and you should be, then you need to learn how your body works.

    A simple answer is to control your blood glucose/insulin levels. That means you need to eat low carbs. If you are struggling with weight loss, it is most likely because your diet drives insulin surges throughout your body, which causes hypoglycemia and prevents fat burn for energy. This causes you to crave more carbs, even if you just ate.

    Eat frequently. Every 2-3 hours. By eating hungry you are not only setting yourself up to overeat, but your body will also rush to store everything as fat!

    The next most important thing to change, is your omega-6:omega-3 ratio. Many clinical studies today show how too much omega-6 in the diet (what you find in vegetable oils) may be the single strongest reason for obesity and the many health complications linked to obesity.

    Avoid trans fats, high fructose corn syrup, sucrose, hydrogenated oils, soy (except soy lecithin), and polyunsaturated fats. Supplement with fish oil. Don’t count calories — count carbs! I can’t tell you how much unless I know your age, weight, gender, and history with weight gain/loss. You can easily find out for yourself by checking out my blog though and learning how to do this correctly.

    Any kind of exercising in addition to eating correctly, will produce optimal results.

    The benefits of changing your eating habits include, reduced anxiety/depression, better sleep, more energy, no carb/sugar cravings, rapid fat loss, better memory, improved thinking, reversing insulin resistance, and the list goes on.

    Being overweight and/or obese is not your fault! You live in a world filled with misinformation, especially from most major health organizations. Learn why you can’t keep the weight off. Improve your life, feel better, live better. Do it before it’s too late!

  4. Try the Atkins - and eat your fats. Just stay away from junky fake fats. Fats are cut up in the body to make a huge number of body parts, hormones, enzymes - they’re quite important. But the people who make the usual junk for the grocery story have convinced everybody that fats are going to kill you instantly. It’s simply not true.

    Anyway - get a copy of Atkins - "New Diet Revolution" off of Amazon - you might also read "Protein Power" and "Carbohydrate Addict’s Diet". Interesting stuff. Atkins can walk you through the diet. This is a whole way of eating which gets you off carbohydrates - and the effects are very positive.

  5. Drink a lot of tea/other things with a lot of caffeine. That will raise your metabolism, but food I don’t know about besides eat low carbs and a balanced diet(and of course no junk food).
    And just curious, why are you so worried about your weight? I’m the same age/weight/a bit taller but a girl(most girls I know that weigh less care), and I don’t care to lose weight…

  6. Eat lots of healthy veggies and fruit. No unhealthy food a all!
